When my sister Isabella read my manuscript, she pushed back: "You write with a lot of war imagery. Do you really want your book to come across in such polemic terms?"
​
​My answer was immediate: "Yes. That's exactly what I want."
​
​Because nobody who has sat in a meeting being told what their child will never do thinks "war" is an exaggeration. The imagery isn't drama. It's accuracy.
​
​But here's what Isabella wrote in her foreword, and the sentence I'll never forget:
​
​"Yes, my brother is a warrior. This book, his book, is an act of love."
​
​That's the tenth law, and it's the whole book: the fight and the love are both true at once. You don't pick one. You carry both. The same hands that pound the table at the IEP meeting hold your son when the seizure passes. That's not a contradiction. That's the job.
​
​If these laws helped you, the book goes deeper — and if you've read it, sixty seconds of honest review on Amazon puts it in front of the next parent searching at 3 a.m. That's Law #10 — and that's all of them.
